Prince William Social Media

Prince William is a doting dad, and when his three children take a break from school, he makes sure he’s free to spend time with them. Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis are clearly the most important people in the future king’s life, and watching him and Princess Kate together makes many people happy. William is like plenty of other dads who want to spend time with their kids while staying connected to the outside world. The prince likes to keep up with the world on social media like the rest of us, and a recent post proved that to be true.

William Posted A Personal Message On X To A British Athlete.

On October 27, William posted a congratulatory message to Billy Monger, a double amputee who completed the Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii.

He wrote, “Well done Billy, inspirational effort. W,” from the official Prince and Princess of Wales X account. Those in the know recognized that the message came personally from William because it was signed with his initials. William and Kate use their first initials as their calling cards.

Prince William Uses Social Media Just Like The Rest Of Us

Billy Monger posted photos of himself crossing the finish line. He captioned his post, “14:23:56 – I can’t believe what just happened, World Championship Record Broken. I am offically an IRONMAN, Let’s goooooo.”

A fan commented, “You absolute LEGEND Billy. So proud of you. Amazing you really are an IRONMAN. Well done . Smashed it.”

Another person cheered, “ABSOLUTE LEGEND!! You are an inspiration, Billy Whizz!!!!

Prince William wasn’t the only person to congratulate Billy.

Comic Relief posted a tribute on X for Billy, “@billymonger battled jellyfish stings, intense humidity and torrential rain to SMASH the existing Ironman World Championships course record for a double leg amputee by over 2 HOURS!”
